Alcohol in breastmilk question - should I dump this expressed milk?

Hi there, i was on a hen do on Saturday night and enjoyed a few wines!! I had one large wine at 630, then two small glasses with a meal, then one more large glass about 10pm. I then expressed when I got home at about 11pm, do I need to dump this milk or is it safe for baby to drink?? Thank you!

Thanks GG, it didn't feel like I had drank much ( probaly in comparison to others I was with!) but once I've typed it down I realise it's about 6 units at least! Thanks for reply, ahh well... good night though.

I've had that much wine and not dumped, but it was a good 5-6 hours after my last drink I expressed. Someone on here told me the alcohol stays in you BM as long as it would in your blood. I however had had a heavy night pumped when I got home, but mixed the BM with BM i had pumpefd before going out. A friend also had "boozy" milk clearly labled in her freezer in case of sleepless night emergencies!

Some pedatricians have said that bfing mothers should have a drink as the tiny amount of alcohol in the milk can help to prevent colic too.

Hi GF, yes I wish I had waited a few hours until I expressed I hate throwing away milk, what a waste! Alcohol would have still been in my system probably at it's peak. I would be mixing it with another couple of ozs from this morning. Interesting what your friend did!!??
